Property is exactly as described. Comfortable, well-appointed, beautiful views! 1st time on Dauphin Island and loved the laid-back and relaxing vibes. Had a small issue of smoke alarm low battery beeping in bedroom, but owner was quick to send someone to change it "after hours." A great experience during a very cold snap in Lower Alabama.

The island no very few restaurants and only 2 open during the “ off season”. Bring your own food because there is none on the island. The condo itself is very nice and the property is great. Clean beach with white sand.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay. It was my daughter’s first time at the beach and she absolutely loved it! The island, town, and beach are very accommodating to families and visitors just wanting to not be surrounded by people and high rise condominiums. This property was no different. My family and I did not feel awkward in someone else’s place. The owner provided all the information we needed for check in and check out along with recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. We will definitely be back to Dauphin Island for future beach trips.

How wonderful! Pantry is well stocked, the kitchen had everything we needed, it was very clean, plenty of towels and beach supplies, and a beach view. The perfect place to stay.

We were so impressed with this condo. This was our first to the island, so we weren't sure what to expect. John goes out of his way to make sure condo is fully stocked with things you might have forgotten. There is plenty of towels and linen, cooking utensils and dishes, books to read, plenty of room in condo. Check in was so easy. John does a excellent job of communicating if you need anything. One last thing the view is amazing! One of the best views I've had from a condo balcony(which by the way is HUGE)!

Condo clean & comfortable. We appreciated having necessities there; toilet paper, paper towels, hand soaps, beach & bath towels/wash cloths, dish towels/cloths, laundry detergent, dish soap, etc. There are even condiments in the refrigerator, cooking oils, canned goods, freezer food, etc. Internet/wifi was functional & fast. View from large balcony is gorgeous w/table, 6 chairs, & 2 chaise loungers. Owner provides beach wagon, chairs, & numerous other beach items. Primary bedroom king mattress is very firm & high. If you are short you may need help getting up on it. Queen bedroom mattress is the most comfortable soft mattress I’ve ever slept on. Ceiling fan in that room makes quite a racket so you probably can’t use it while sleeping. Condo had numerous books to read covering various topics from the Beatles, birding, fiction, non-fiction, & local areas. If you use the streaming services make sure to delete your account off the TV before you leave. We would definitely stay here again or at any other of the owner’s listings as well based on this experience. Some other general reflections on the area……………We found area to be quiet & laid back. Call ahead to any of the few restaurant or stores to confirm hours of operation. Don’t trust Facebook, website, or menus. Some places listed are closed & new places listed nowhere yet. Many places close at 8pm, open only on weekends, or have unusual hours. Some are take-out only. Parking at public beach areas is $10 daily. Low water pressure in showers for whole building. Would love to see a handheld shower head for those of us who have physical limitations. 1 standalone shower & 1 jacuzzi tub in primary bedroom & 1 shower/tub combo in 2nd bathroom. Bathtub is deep w/ high walls to step into or bathe children in if you have physical limitations. Fishing requires a license. Beach is a ¼ mile from the pool/beach entrance of condo building. Wood boardwalk for half the way (not in good shape). Tremendous amount of seaweed on beach & water. Outdoor pool is covered & about 90% shade which was great. Both pools could use a good cleaning. Tile on the interior of both pools were covered w/ pool scum & needs scrubbing. Decks need to be pressure washed. Other condo balconies had smokers, loud talkers, and music that you can hear from this balcony. Couldn’t hear/smell it inside condo. Common areas of the building (not condo) are dated & I wouldn’t call them luxury. I would say just average & some sprucing up needed.

Really enjoyed our stay! The condo was very nice. Comfortable furniture, nicely stocked kitchen. Lots of extras: paper towels, laundry detergent , spices, etc. The balcony view was beautiful. Beach is wonderful.

We had a great stay at the Holiday Isle on Dauphin Island. This place had everything we needed to enjoy our visit; awesome view, it was clean, good amenities, and CLOSE TO THE BEACH. Our family recommends this place.

The condo was exactly what we were expecting. We were scammed last summer on a condo and was super nervous about renting again, without a rental company. Everything went very well and we received our check in info before our check in date! We had a great time and would definitely rent again. I have a feeling the owners are amazing people

We had a great time. It was so peaceful and restful. We decided on a Thanksgiving Get away, was concerned I wouldn’t have everything I needed to make a full Thanksgiving meal. But the condo was so well-stocked that I needed nothing and made an amazing Thanksgiving feast which we ate at sunset on the balcony. Lifelong beautiful memories with my family.

This condo was just fine! It was exactly as advertised.

The experience in renting this condo was exceptional. The owners were excellent hosts and were very responsive. The condo was fully furnished with everything needed to make our trip exceptional. We enjoyed our stay tremendously and would recommend this to others who are looking for a quiet getaway.

Once again we had a great time in John's condo. It was clean and felt like home immediately. Our only issues with the trip had nothing to do with the condo. The island cancelled the 4th of July fireworks due to the pandemic, and the beach was covered with seaweed. But we had an amazing time and really enjoyed the condo. The view is unbeatable, and there is nothing like an evening/dusk walk on the beach.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at John's Holiday Isle condo. The view, decor, amenities, and all of the extras provided for us were top notch. Thank you so very much!!!

Excellent experience. Island is isolated but beautiful and absolutely grows on you. Will definitely be back! The perfect place to get away, have some down time, and simply watch the sunset. In all of our years of renting through VRBO, it was the first time the owner called to check on us and make sure everything was well.

Condo owner is very nice. Beds were very comfortable and condo description is as described online. We enjoyed our visit. Thanks again, John!

The condo was by far the best one my family and I have ever stayed in. Condo staff were super helpful and excited to tell us daily events around the island. The host was very nice and communication was amazing. His place was so perfect and I thank him for sharing. Our sons 13th bday trip to the island was perfect because of this listing.

Had a wonderful time
